headers: remove sched.h from interrupt.h

2009-10-11T18:20:58+00:00

After m68k's task_thread_info() doesn't refer to current,
it's possible to remove sched.h from interrupt.h and not break m68k!
Many thanks to Heiko Carstens for allowing this.

slip: Clean up create and destroy

2009-09-19T20:13:17+00:00

The network layer now has a destructor we can hook to clean up the slip
devices array. That needs us to initiate unregister events in the right
places which with the current tty layer we can do, and with network
refcounting is safe to do.

netdev: convert pseudo drivers to netdev_tx_t

2009-09-01T08:13:40+00:00

These are all drivers that don't touch real hardware.

net: use NETDEV_TX_OK instead of 0 in ndo_start_xmit() functions

2009-07-06T02:16:04+00:00

This patch is the result of an automatic spatch transformation to convert
all ndo_start_xmit() return values of 0 to NETDEV_TX_OK.

Some occurences are missed by the automatic conversion, those will be
handled in a seperate patch.

tty: Flags should be accessed via the foo_bit interfaces

2008-12-06T06:31:52+00:00

We have various drivers that poke around directly and we need to clean this
up before it causes problems.

drivers/net: Kill now superfluous ->last_rx stores.

2008-11-04T05:11:17+00:00

The generic packet receive code takes care of setting
netdev->last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the
bonding ARP monitor.

Drivers need not do it any more.

Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers
were making use of the ->last_rx value themselves.

tty: Ldisc revamp

2008-07-21T00:12:34+00:00

Move the line disciplines towards a conventional ->ops arrangement.  For
the moment the actual 'tty_ldisc' struct in the tty is kept as part of
the tty struct but this can then be changed if it turns out that when it
all settles down we want to refcount ldiscs separately to the tty.

Pull the ldisc code out of /proc and put it with our ldisc code.

tty: The big operations rework

2008-04-30T15:29:47+00:00

- Operations are now a shared const function block as with most other Linux
  objects

- Introduce wrappers for some optional functions to get consistent behaviour

- Wrap put_char which used to be patched by the tty layer

- Document which functions are needed/optional

- Make put_char report success/fail

- Cache the driver->ops pointer in the tty as tty->ops

- Remove various surplus lock calls we no longer need

- Remove proc_write method as noted by Alexey Dobriyan

- Introduce some missing sanity checks where certain driver/ldisc
  combinations would oops as they didn't check needed methods were present
